I've already read the previous thread about PulseAudio, which took place
months before I joined this mailing list. I'm reopening the debate, since
one aspect wasn't previously covered.
I've instructed my computer to automatically route OSS through ALSA and ALSA
through PulseAudio. This seems to cause the unwanted loss of some initial
audio packets in some applications.
For example, while I'm talking to someone via Linphone, I might hear them
say 'correct' instead of what they actually said ('incorrect'). I've used
this extreme case to illustrate the confusion that can be caused when the
beginnings of words are truncated.
In my experience, this problem usually goes away when the application gets
native support for PulseAudio. Mainly for this reason, I'm hoping that
Linphone will do the same. People have whined about PulseAudio in the past,
but I think it's great these days.
